Eclipsed Thrones - Book 1 of The Dawnfall Prophecy Saga (ongoing)
In a world where light and shadow are bound by prophecy, mercy can end the world. For centuries, the Veil has kept the fae realms of Elyndra and Nyxareth apart , the radiant kingdom of the Seraphim above, and the necromantic empire of the Nyxar below. But when the Veil begins to fracture, Althira - a young priestess of light, is sent to broker peace before the heavens collapse. Across the border waits Malakar, the Prince of Nyxareth, heir to a throne built on blood, bearing a soul that whispers with the hunger of an ancient god. Their meeting was never meant to happen. Their love was never meant to exist. And when their hearts begin to echo one another's, the Devourer of Suns stirs again. "When light touches hunger, the world remembers its first sin." A tale of forbidden love, cosmic prophecy, and the war between mercy and power. *this book will contain ancient prophecies, fantasy lore *FMC; matriarch kingdom, reflecting feminine power. *toxic romance trope, that ends in a twist *FMC will meet multiple lovers (going onto the next book) *CHAP 8-10 COMING OUT THIS WEEK
The Rise of The Crescent Heir
In the mystical city of the Midnight Kingdom, where magic and shadows coexist, a young heir named Elara discovers her extraordinary lineage: she is the Crescent Heir, destined to wield the combined powers of light and shadow to protect the city's Heart, a magical source of balance and life. As ancient forces awaken, a cunning mastermind unleashes a Final Weapon, threatening the city and the people she loves. From humble beginnings, Elara struggles to master her powers, navigate complex friendships, and confront her growing feelings for Kael, her loyal companion and confidant. Alongside her trusted allies-Talric, a strategic warrior; Lysandra, a mystical winged guardian; and Seraphine, a powerful mage-she faces relentless trials, from shadow-augmented armies to ancient magical trials, all while the Chronicle, an ancient magical ledger, demands a sacrifice for maintaining balance. Each chapter builds tension with dangerous encounters, emotional dilemmas, and mystical revelations. Elara learns that light and shadow are not opposites but complementary, and only through mastering both can she protect her city and loved ones. Through strategic teamwork, trust, and courage, she leads her allies against the Final Weapon and the mastermind, culminating in a climactic confrontation where the Chronicle's price demands her ultimate sacrifice. In the final battle, Elara channels the full extent of her Crescent-shadow powers to destroy the Final Weapon, stabilize the Heart, and defeat the mastermind. The cost is immense, leaving her physically drained and transformed-but alive, her mastery complete. The story closes with hope tempered by vigilance: though the city is safe, faint magical anomalies on the horizon hint at future challenges, ensuring the legacy of the Crescent Heir continues.

Infused with a mysterious, dark power, the lizard-men race of the balisekts invades the civilized territories with an overwhelming force.

She has no memory of who she is or where she came from, but she is infused with the ability to make things grow at her will. The tribes of the Lands of Order hope to use her abilities to bring them prosperity, while the balisekts seek to make her a weapon of war.

Fading Light
In an age where war devours what remains of humankind, violence, hunger, and fear define every day. Branded as witches, women are burned or impaled alongside their children, while men on distant fields lose their lives-or their sanity. Amid this desolation, seven beings cross paths at an ancient castle, each of them shaped in their own way by the ruin around them. Yet all seek the same thing. Unaware of the forces moving behind the veil, they make choices that could alter existence itself-for when the light of the Last One fades, the world ends with it. Authors note It all began during a double period of advanced history class, when the memory of our last round of 'The Dark Eye' was far more captivating than World War II: the witch's first steps, hastily scribbled in pencil on a scrap of paper... Six friends and a little sister, babysat between candlelight and clattering dice. Today, 25 years later, this work finally receives the attention from me that it has always deserved. For Stevy, Fabi, Pina, Björn, Lars, and Aiden. ! Trigger warning ! This story contains themes such as child abuse, the death of children, derogatory attitudes toward physical disabilities, descriptions of murder, decay, and violence against others.Concluida
The Forest of Lights
Long ago, in a kingdom ruled by silence, two princesses dared to speak. Thana and Khalida were sisters bound by blood but divided by destiny. Together they formed the Guerrillas, a secret band of warrior women fighting for justice in a land that denied them power. But when one sister dares to enter the forbidden heart of their realm-the Forest of Lights, a place of both refuge and fear-a single prophecy brings secrets to light and fractures the bond they believed was unbreakable. In a world where light can deceive and darkness can guide, only the truth within their shattered hearts can save what remains. ~~ The story is finally complete! I'd appreciate your reads so much. ❤ The second book of the series is a work in progress (but may never be finished due to my co-writer disappearing) Note: no, this book has nothing to do with The Bringer of Light, the titles are accidentally similar. I'll try not to put "light" in my next book title lol TRIGGER WARNING: suicide, violence, mental health issuesConcluida

𝗕𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗼𝗼𝘁𝘀 | 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐰𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠
Beneath the roots lies a realm unspoken, where shadows breathe and rivers run black. A single step too far unravels the veil between worlds, turning play into curse, and innocence into exile. Beyond the roots, the air itself conspires, forests whisper of forgotten kings, and demons walk as both beasts and men. Yet above that abyss rises a kingdom of warmth, a fragile jewel cradled in sunlight. Its streets awaken each dawn in a riot of color: banners ripple, stalls spill with fruit and cloth, and fountains laugh with crystal spray. Children dart through blooming gardens, their laughter ringing louder than bells, while elders sit beneath arching roots, telling stories of brighter days. Here, joy is stitched into life itself. The baker greets with sugared bread, the blacksmith's hammer sings with the town musicians, and couples dance when lanterns glow like fallen stars. Festivals turn nights into oceans of song, where drums thunder and torches paint the sky in fire and gold. In this place, hope does not hide-it parades, it feasts, it laughs. The people call their home a sanctuary, untouched by sorrow, where each day begins with promise and ends in peace. To live here is to believe, if only for a moment, that darkness is nothing more than a distant dream. But beneath their feet, the roots stretch into silence. For every blossom hides its shadow, and every feast masks a silence that waits. The kingdom may be a cradle of joy, but its foundation drinks from the same soil where nightmares stir. Here, survival is no gift. Every choice is a bargain, every path a trial. What seems human may wear another face, and what seems monstrous may hold a broken heart. Secrets buried for centuries stir in the soil, twisting destiny tighter with every breath. This is not a tale of crowns or kingdoms, but of a world where light is fragile, where hope withers, and where even the roots that bind the earth tremble before what waits below.
If other worlds exist beyond the looking glass, how do we cross over to those foreign shores? What will we find there in the lands of whimsy and fantasy? What will find us? *** Malachi is a miserable man who's had one too many bad turns. On his last ropes, he's ready to give up the ghost when he finds the green door. Pulled into another world, one of monsters and demons, he is given new gifts and a new purpose. A crumbling queendom needs a hero and Malachi needs a new reason to live. The Sleeper must awaken and save the people of a world that isn't even his own.
